Some 70km triangles completed
A succession of fronts lining up in the North which will generate Cbs in the N, but we will remain fine but with perhaps some high cloud later in the afternoon. Much lighter winds, with good XC potential. Yesterday I was nervous about going across the pass due to the high wind forecast. Today you should pull out all the stops as it should be fine AND tomorrow it is going to be rubbish for flyingXC, though light winds may allow us a bit of local flying!
Wind going N at the end of the day, so for this not making the long XC, the conditions this evening should be better than we have been having the last few days with the westerlies.

Wow good flying chaps, top effort. Lovely bit of Piedrahita valley flying. I see Steve Ham has got that calling for ice cream and beer at the Barco bar and why not, it is a lovely place to land and refresh ones self. The magic triangle finally worked for Jonathan G as well. I’m sat looking out at rain and strong winds, I would rather be enjoying that ice cream and non alcoholic shandy with Steve.
